Sitemaps are an important way of communication with search engines and also contain web information

ExpertWP · 10-05-2015, 10:43 PM

XML sitemaps serve a very niche purpose in search engine optimization: facilitating indexation. Posting an XML sitemap is kind of like rolling out the red carpet for search engines and giving them a roadmap of the preferred routes through the site. It’s the site owner’s chance to tell crawlers, “I’d really appreciate it if you’d focus on these URLs in particular.” Whether the engines accept those recommendations of which URLs to crawl depends on the signals the site is sending.

Aside from XML sitemaps there are some ways to index your site page like submissions to different platforms.

XML sitemap helps search engines to get information regarding your webpages and provide it to online user instantly.

Martinricky · 10-06-2015, 02:48 AM

Using sitemaps has many benefits, not only easier navigation and better visibility by search engines. Sitemaps offer the opportunity to inform search engines immediately about any changes on your site. Of course, you cannot expect that search engines will rush right away to index your changed pages but certainly the changes will be indexed faster, compared to when you don't have a sitemap.

With search engines becoming smarter do you still need to submit a sitemap?

Ajitkumar3344 · 10-06-2015, 04:05 AM

Use of sitemap is one of the important part of SEO. Sitemaps, as the name implies, are just a map of your site - i.e. on one single page you show the structure of your site, its sections, the links between them, etc. Sitemaps make navigating your site easier and having an updated sitemap on your site is good both for your users and for search engines.

Site map is a way to tell Google bot about all the pages of your site. By submitting site map you will be confirm that all pages of your site will get crawled indexed by Google.
